Too expensive for what was offered. Two full sized beds placed right next to each other. Very noisy in the early morning hours when partiers got back from the bars. The tv didn’t work and we had to have someone come help us with it two nights in a row and the phone in the room didn’t work. Not really a hotel in my opinion

The not so Great Gatsby
Cleanliness not so bad…but Light and timer switch non-functional in bathroom. Light in main room not functional. TV non-functional. Towel holder shelf coming off the wall. Extremely noisy interior and exterior. Hot water very uncertain.

Convenient and comfortable
This is a cute hotel in a convenient location. From the street you ring the bell to get in. The elevator has a loud long beep when closing, and there's a lot of street noise (but hey it is NYC) Bed was very comfortable and there was lots of natural light. The area is very walkable and fairly close to the subway station.

The rooms are incredibly small, even for NYC hotel rooms. These rooms are good for sleeping, not for hanging out.

I didnt end up sleeping here. I was wigged out by the fact the bathroom light was broken and the ac wouldn't turn on. There were broken chips off of the furniture as well as fruit flies in room. The room is located in the basement and the air conditioning unit is located overhead which feels dangerous. I feel that The Gatsby should lower the price due to these conditions especially if they put guests in the basement with little natural lighting. The staff was wonderful in trying to help me, but I have higher standards for my partner who I got this hotel for as it was their first night back in the city. I hope The Gatsby can improve. The staff was very kind and accommodating.

AC didnt work very well and ran the entire night to barely cool the room. Trash caddy in the entryway at night stunk the downstairs up. The location is good, close to anything you'd need

The property is located walking distance from a lot of stores, restaurants, and transportation. Staff was great, daily clean up were great. My only comment is that the cabinets(dresser?) in our room was broken, the curtains was just thrown in it(I’m guessing they fell off the window and left there), and there was no hot water(the one time I got it hot it took 15 minutes of running the water). So if you’re looking for an affordable simple clean stay this is it.

The location was great! Super close to everything. The staff was very helpful and friendly, the rooms were clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. However, we got one tv channel in another language and that was it. Not bad, BUT the shower was the dealbreaker for me. The teensiest, weakest trickle of water came out. I meant to take a photo, it was so bad. I've heard old men pee with more vigor than that sad shower. We ended up letting the water run into the tub, squatting, and washing medieval-peasant-by-the-river style. If not for this, I would gladly give 5 stars as the price, great staff, and location can't be beat. If bathing isn't high on your priorities, give the Gatsby a try!
